Steer Clear of These Items in September

September can be a tricky time to get a deal. If you can hold out and want to cash in on serious savings, it's better to avoid splurging on popular electronic items this month.

For instance, if you have your eye on a new cell phone, wait just a little bit longer. Sales on cell phones are rare in September, so you'll benefit from waiting until December when retailers and service providers are gearing up for the holidays.

The same goes for laptops. Once those back-to-school sales have ended, prices will go back to normal until the holidays. The best time to buy one isn't too far away, though. You can score deep discounts during Black Friday sales.

Football season has begun, but while it's tempting to buy a new big screen for game days, hold off for now. November and December are the best months to get great prices on a new TV.

So, if you're thinking about buying something new this month, avoid these three items. In this case, the savings will undoubtedly be worth the wait.

I have ran into very bad salesman when I tried to by my last computer. They actually tried to sell me cheaper ones. When I bought one of my cars from a car lot the man didn't even try to sell me at all. I asked to drive a car he gave me the keys & didn't even try to show me any cars. He told me nothing at all about the car. I drove it & liked it & tested only one car & bought it & he didn't tell me one thing about the car what so ever. I bet I was his easiest sale.

I am trying to earn swagbucks here & I only had to watch 6 videos & I don't know about anyone else but your same videos keep playing OVER & OVER again I bet I watched so many of your SAME videos I have them memorized. I watched all of your videos at least 4 times. Someone needs to fix this!!!!!!

This article is bunk. September/October is the BEST time to buy laptops and TVs, all the retailers are clearancing the BTS (Back To School) items out as fast as possible to make room for the new "holiday" inventory. Generally, holiday items are cheaper to sell faster during the holidays, but they are also not built as well as the back to school items. People are unwilling to spend as much on a gift laptop as they would on their own laptop, and manufacturers know this.I work for one of the biggest PC manufacturers in the world, and there is a noticable difference in inventory now and inventory items in november/December.

I would take a quick look at more of your articles but I can't afford to do so. I have a 5 GB limit per month and your videos steal my data allotment. Make videos optional or I will have to resist the temptation to look at your articles.

Auto play videos suck! Allow folks to read the story without being forced to wait for your slow loading, system hogging videos. If someone wants to watch give them the option to watch. If all they want is to read, let them read. Appears auto play is being used to force ads since shut down of video has not been possible until after ad has played.

AMEN!!!! Show-and-tell presentations insult our intelligence. I skip them regardless of my interest in the subject. That's why I voted "no" for the helpfulness of the video on this article. I did not, do not want to watch it.
